"The consumer demand for Disney+ has exceeded our highest expectations. ... we are aware of the current user issues and are working to swiftly resolve them," Disney said in a statement. Many others had trouble finding the Disney+ app in Apple's App Store. On FireTV Stick can't load main page (Unable to connect to Disney+) and couldn't play 'The Mandalorian' (some account issue)," user @pmhesse https://twitter.com/pmhesse/status/1194231076094390279 tweeted.
